About IFPI

IFPI advocates on behalf of its member record companies and works to champion and defend the recorded music industry worldwide. Our goal is to improve the environment for record labels to operate in and support the growth and evolution of a thriving music ecosystem around the world. IFPI is trusted by governments and international organisations as the advocate for the recording industry.

Our work spans a wide range of fields, including worldwide policy engagement and campaigning, extensive industry data gathering and analysis, the launching and management of music charts, music copyright protection and enforcement, development of technology and data standards and managing best-practice in performance rights collections.

The role

· Advocate industry positions before national governments, regional bodies and international organisations and campaign in relation to legislative reforms more generally.

· Assist IFPI’s regional offices and national groups with legislative campaigns and submissions to government to advance industry policy priorities.

· Coordinate closely with IFPI’s communications, litigation and content protection teams to ensure alignment on priorities and positioning.

Position Requirements

· At least 7 years’ experience as a qualified lawyer or international relations/policy professional in a relevant area.

· Good working knowledge of copyright, media and entertainment law, AI and data regulation, and/or trade law.

· Proven track record of excellent written and oral communication skills - be capable of producing accurate and compelling written and oral submissions, including under pressure and with short deadlines.

· Keenness to work as part of a global high-performance team.

· Self-starter, with the ability to work independently as well as collaboratively.

· Keenness to learn about the industry and IFPI members’ commercial and strategic needs.

· Fluent in written and spoken English with fluency in other major languages an advantage.
